Comparison of the risk of appendiceal tumors in uncomplicated and complicated appendicitis

Takuya Sugimoto et al.

Summary: This study compared the occurrence rates of appendiceal tumors between uncomplicated and complicated appendicitis. It found that among patients aged >= 60 years, the incidence of appendiceal tumors was significantly higher in complicated appendicitis than in uncomplicated appendicitis.

Demographic trends in the incidence of malignant appendiceal tumours in England between 1995 and 2016: Population-based analysis

Philippa Orchard et al.

Summary: Recent data show that the incidence rate of malignant appendiceal tumors in England is increasing, primarily due to an increase in neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Comparable incidence rate increases were observed across different age groups, genders, and socioeconomic deprivation quintiles. The study also suggests that the increased diagnosis of low-grade NETs may be attributed to changes in pathological classification systems.

Jenny Alajaaski et al.

Summary: This population-based study investigates the histology of appendiceal tumors among acute appendicitis patients. The study finds that complicated acute appendicitis and patients over 40 years old are significantly associated with more malignant appendiceal tumor histology.

Is interval appendectomy really needed? A closer look at neoplasm rates in adult patients undergoing interval appendectomy after complicated appendicitis

Danielle Hayes et al.

Summary: The risk of occult appendiceal neoplasm is low in patients under the age of 30; however, the rate of appendiceal neoplasm in patients 30 years and older is 11%, increasing with age to 16% for patients 50 years and older. Considering these findings, it is recommended to consider interval appendectomy in all patients 30 years and older with complicated appendicitis.

Appendiceal neoplasm incidence and mortality rates are on the rise in Australia

Reger R. Mikaeel et al.

Summary: The incidence and mortality rates of appendiceal neoplasms (ANs) in Australia have significantly increased across both genders and age groups, with incidence rates rising by 415% and mortality rates by 130%. Controlling for age and gender, the incidence rates increased by 20% every four years, and controlling for age, the mortality rates increased by 8% every four years.

Impact of the Surgical Approach to Thymectomy Upon Complete Stable Remission Rates in Myasthenia Gravis A Meta-analysis

Paola Solis-Pazmino et al.

Summary: In patients with MG, different surgical techniques for thymectomy showed similar rates of CSR at 3 years. The only significant difference was seen at 10 years between traditional open and minimally invasive approaches. Extended minimally invasive approaches appear to be equivalent to extended transsternal approaches in achieving CSR.
